The faces of THR

Someone with the technical knowledge should take all the photos here and create a photo library so we could look up the "screen name" of a person and acquaint ourselves with what the person looks like. Just an idea. I have found this thread very, very interesting. My, what a varied lot we are and yet unified in the Second Amendment. That was a great idea to start this thread TimboKhan. Thanks.

cbsbyte, I love that T-shirt (post #146). I want one!

Here's one of the most recent ones of me. Sorry it'll only be an attachment. I'm too lazy to put it on the web.

Here's one with the cradle for our baby one the way.



I don't have many older ones right with me. So you'll just have to settle for the funny shaped ones.

I'm one for no facial hair and no fishing and no dogs (I'm allergic to seafood and dogs).

only pic I have handy...

So from this can we assume that most bass players with facial hair own guns?

I'm the human.

And heres the requisite facial hair shot (Though in all fairness i easily lose any contest compared to some of you)

Gotta agree with glajlu, TimboKahn: thanks. This IS a good idea.

For me, it's already been a very thought-provoking experience to see who's on the road. We seem a totally interesting bunch with a great diversity of age, ethnicities, body types and I suspect equally diverse backgrounds, philosophies, professions, etc.

Yet here we are together on this cyber-road, sharing a strong interest in, appreciation of, and respect for guns.

So far, I recognize the user names of a relatively small percentage (maybe 20%) of those posting images (because I've been in threads with them in the past), and look forward to seeing images of more of those that I do know.

But it's interesting that seeing a person in here for the first time makes me instantly feel like, "Wow, I'd like to know more about this person. Let me check their other posts to learn more about who they are, what they think, what they shoot (both guns and targets)."

And I suspect, for some reason, that by us seeing each other as people could - just could - increase our level of mutual respect when we're hanging out in other threads, especially some of those that are say ...
... <ahem> a bit politically and/or philosophically <ahem> shRILL. <ahem>

I have as much interest in seeing older pics of people as current ones.
Kind of a photo album, of "here's where we've been".

I've attached three of me from the past.

1) circa 1950's with two cousins. That's me on the right.
(<jk> I was packing a BB pistol in an IWB </jk>)

2) just out of high school on a graduation trip to New Orleans.

3) on the way to becoming a hippie (pre-beard).
(I'm no longer a hippie, but I went through that phase ...)

Nice to see the faces at THR. We're a mixed crew, no doubt.

Funny, but I just realized I have no pictures of me armed. Have to get busy on that. Here are a few of me:

- Whale Watching off of Maine
- Dog Sledding in Canada
- Hitch hiking back to Shanghai in a Police Cruiser from Hangzhou, P.R.C. with my son Josh
- Temple Square in Nanjing, P.R.C. with my son Josh and my staff, Kitty.

Nemo, that little kid on the left? I had no idea you hung out with Ralphie from A Christmas Story.

PS: Larry: Any update on Labgrade's son? And how is Crystal doing?

OK, the first on the left is me. The second is Oleg shooting my selective fire Uzi. The third is Art Eatman and JShirley. The photo of Oleg is, I believe, by Derek Zeanah. The other two are by Oleg Volk.

TimboKhan-I make my hubby shave. Of course he doesn't have much there anyway. He's a graphic designer and could probably draw one on me.

It's good to see everyone. And talk to y'all again. It's been a while.

Ill Play

Here is one of me after a tiring night.

Here I am guarding a whole mess of brisket and pork butts at my smoker.

Me and my older daugher, at a handgun class (has it been 4 years already?).

Me and my better half.

The wife and I in Puerta Vallarta this winter.

Byron Quick, you remind me of the late character actor, Albert Salmi.

Here I am.

This is my friend Dave and I, prior to a good days shooting.

Timbo, if you don't mind me asking, who is Sarah's boyfriend...I follow UFC pretty close and was just curious.

If you'd rather not say, I won't be mad.

I wanna know what the heck shotgunkevin was shooting and how it set fire to a tree!!!!

Oh....and WHERE CAN I GET ONE??!!!
